The first, which someone pointed out to me on IIDB: you cannot state that god exists because morals exist. First, there is no objective morality because different cultures approve and disapprove of different things all the time. Second, if objective morality did exist, as many theists posit, are they objectively moral because god said they were good, or are they good without him saying anything? If it is the former, then they are not objective, they are subjective because god said so. If it is the latter, then the morals are independant of god and thus cannot prove his existence.

The second, which I came up with on my own: prayer, which is mandatory in many religions, does not allow the existence of a god. A god must necessarily be omnipotent, omniscient, and omnibenevolent to be god; if it does not meet all three criteria then it is not a god. If you are praying about a problem you are facing, this means that the god made the problem or allowed it to exist, and thus it is not

Several people died when the bridge on I 35 collapsed tonight. And that is terrible!!! I'm not out to condemn those that built the bridge, but I am anticipating people blaming God. All I want to know is, in this tragedy, who is to blame, people (someone made a mistake, I am not out to blame whomever) or God?

I am sick of everyone judging one another (ONLY GOD IS GOOD ENOUGH TO JUDGE ANYONE) He who is without sin shall throw the first stone.

I am sick of everyone killing.(THOU SHALL NOT KILL) No one is exempt from this rule. Every life taken and every war fought is wrong and sinful.

I am sick of the unkind words. (LOVE EVERYONE, NO MATTER WHO THEY ARE OR WHAT THEY BELIEVE)

GOD LOVES EVERYONE, EVEN THE PEOPLE WHO STRAY FROM HIS FLOCK.

YOU WON'T GET CLOSER TO HEAVEN IF YOU GIVE YOUR PASTOR 10% OF YOU INCOME (TITHE) SO HE CAN DRIVE A BMW.

WE MUST BECOME HUMAN AGAIN AND IMBRACE LIFE (WITH ALL IT'S FLAWS)

GOD IS REAL, IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW YOU PICTURE HIM OR WHAT YOU CALL HIM, HE STILL LISTENS AND HE STILL LOVES YOU.

GOD UNDERSTANDS YOUR PROBLEMS, PERHAPS YOU SCHOULD CRY ON HIS SHOULDER FOR ONCE.

GOD IS EVERYWHERE!

I MIGHT JUST BE A NAIVE PERSON WHO IS YOUNG AND HAS A LOT OF LIFE TO LIVE, BUT I KNOW WHAT I BELIEVE AND THIS IS IT.

It says it's not running dual channel. Do I have to change BIOS settings? If so, how?

My parents worked full time. I grew up mainly at my grandparents house. My grandparents lived at the beach. They had a whole room as a library. I read any book I could get my hands on, adult books, everything. I spent many time outside in the country beach playing alone. I spent time thinking up fairy tales and pretending I was characters out of books I read. I used to ride my bike everywhere and be back before dark. I spent much time alone and with the horses that lived near my place, and my horse. When my parents finished work, they drank a lot. My mother had an affair and the man was always over making her drunk and trying to take her pants off. My dad got abusive at times and wrecked the house and hit my mother. My brothers started drinking and smoking at 13 and got into big trouble all the time. Am I normal?

Life today is all non intentional, with a series of events, There is no real purpose to life. Why are people always looking for a purpose.
there is no real or original purpose to life because if there were you would not be free, it means you have a role a job to full fill. No purpose in life means you are free to do whatever you want. You can do anything you want in life, ( unless of course you have certain physical limitations)
If you had a purpose in life it means you are made specifcally for a task. But we have no task other than what we make it. This pnly shows that there is no purpose in life, there's only options, choices, and oppertunities. Depending on the way we perceive things limits us as a whole of what we can do. But if we actually start to see things for the way they are maybe people will understand this better. How come people think having no purpose in life is bad or horrible, but never think about it as freedom? I mean if i had a purpose that means i get limited
